Sound problems Just got a new computer (windows vista), all the sound levels are turned up but I still can barely hear anything. Would using speakers that are 4 years old be the problem? as well when I play video's from you tube everyone sounds like a chipmunk talking really fast. Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks

My touchpad mouse has stopped working. Hardware and driver are completely okey but it still does not move. The strange matter is that the mouse works only in case of pressing "mute button" on the laptop in addition to touch pad (simultaneoulsy). moreover, the enter key has stopped working and there is a continuous beep while turning on the computer (for about several seconds). Is there any relation between these events? please help me specially with my mouse.

The beep(s) you're hearing are most likely the POST (Power On Self Test) error signal(s). When your computer is first turn on it runs a series of test call the POST. This signal is indicating that there is something wrong with the computer hardware. ...

I was using my laptop when it threw up a message to turn it off then the screen went a green colour then blank.I have since tried to start it again but it is only making a funny noise.It is only 10 weeks old so should i return it to [email protected] which is where I bought it.Thank you

I could go into a long explanation of how to troubleshoot the laptop but if it's only ten weeks old... take it back. if the noise you hear is like a ticking noise the hard drive may have quit.\015\012\015\012robert \015\012\0 ...
